The Tallest Policeman in Amcriea
New York World.

New York WOrl1
Mahlon Shaaber, OF Reading, Penn
stands six feet eight iolches high. He ex-
cites wonder whereE er he casts his pro-
digious shadow. His life is full of ro-
nance and most ludisrous incidents, all
brought about by the startling surprises
of his towering presence. Re is highly
honored citizen. g rechinist by trade,
but in the reeently inaugureted admin
istration of Mayor 8enney hes been APP
pointed to the position of chief of police.
He is a unique charcter in the place
the tsllest policeman in America.
He is married In&n and has children
His wife measures fiNe feet four inches,
and looks strikingly diminUtive by his
side. His domestic arrangements, the
architectural features of his house, the
dimensions of his furniture are all OF
special measurement and suited to his
size. He sleeps in C. bed made to order
over seven feet in the'sleer. The dining
table is of a special design and so are his
chairs. An exception to the common
rule of arrangements must always be
made in his behalf.

fed, but for what reason we could not
even conjecture. Here was a lump of
salvage for us worth looking after, and
Capt. Lansing determined to take her to
the islands. We hadn't an extra man on
the brig, Indeed, we were one short of
our complement. We had therefore de-
cided to take tow line to the brig
and hang by her at least while
the weather was safe, and had be-
gun our preparations, when an
"oy-eye," or squall, was seen gathering
in the south, and we had to hurry aboard
the brig to make all snug. The sqaall hit
us fercely and lasted nearly half an hour,
and when we came out of it the schooner
had turned turtle within half mile of us
and the prize had slipped from our grasp.
Did we ever learn anything further
about her! Not word, singular as it
may seem. The incident was published
in scores of papers, and called to the at
tention of thousands of sailors, but none
of them was ever able to furnish any true
information. What do think! Well, it
was one of the mysteries, but no stranger
than some others l have had a hand in.

NonLleys ,GoQght With Sugar

~
A gentleman who retained reoe10ky
from Asp;nwall tells the following ouci
Gus story OF the manner in which the
natives of tie interior of tke Isthmxs
and Panama capture monkeys:
Almost all the pet monkeys in ttLs
country" said he, "eome from Gofgona
a small village half way on the line Of the
Panama railroad. Tlke inhabitants are
native negroes, for no white man could
kVe in the village a month unless he
drank whisky and took quinine con
st2ntly. The sarrog riding country is
swsmpy and covered with a dense mass of
luxgriant vegetation. At nightfall
a thick miasma rises from the ground
ans hangs over the forests like a cloud.
This place is the monkeys paradise.
They travel through the forests in tcoops,
going wherever the king monkey leads.
When the natives have been appraised
of the presence of troop they go about
YEARLY TO capture them.
Their plan is a simple one A hole is
cut in the shell of a cocoanut just large
enough to admit a monkeys Enclosed
paw. The eocoanu. is scooped outrand
lump of sugar placed in the hollow. A
string Is then attached 70 this novel trap,
and the negroes conceal themselves until
the monkeys pass by. Curiosity is one
of the chief characteristics of these little
creatures, and when they espy the cocoa
nut lying upon the ground they come
down from the trees and proceed
TO inspect it carefully. The lump Of
sugar does not long escape their notice,
and one of then thrusts paw through
the aperture to grasp it. With the lump
of sugar cl8sped in mis- hand he finds 1T
impossible to Withdraw IT, nor will his
gre .dy nature allow him 70 abandon his
prize. The negroes have no difficulty in
drawing him nearer end nearer % their
ambush, the whole troops campering
mady about him, chattering and gestic-
ulating As only monkeys can. When they
have arrived within easy reach large not
is thrown ont, and they are made prison
ers. Twenty Or thirty are often cap

A Gaas in a ,sb,eet Car
Washlngton Herald


The passengers on az II street car en-
ioyed an amusing incident few morn
ings ago. At the corner of Tenth street
a robust colored damsel entered the car
carrying in her arms y0ung goat. The
driver peered through the window, and
seeing the kid at once opened the door,
and, putting his head into the car,
shouted:
II say, there! YoG'H have to take that
goat out of the ear | can't allow ne goats
TO ride"
The girl did not heir or pretended not
TO hear, for she gazed straight ahead, and
paid no attention. The driver stopped
his car and entered
tiCome, now he said, "didn't you hear
me tell you that goats was not 10 be
brought into this car: Now, / want You
to put that goat off"
',Boss," replied the girl quietly, 1--WE
done paid my fare, and Use gwtde 10 ride,
4 is"
'''You can't ride with goat in FourlaP,"
persisted the driver.
"Whet do you take me foh?7 said the
girl, showing evidence OF spirit "Dar,s
& gal 0ber dar," pointing to s. richly
dressed society belle with King Charles
spaniel in her arms, with a nasty ugly
dog. Now, ant my goat jess ez good as
dat dar dog? Well, should smile; deed
would l eff it ant. Goat meat good to
eat, and dog meat emit no good, no how.
In sist my kids jess ez good ez dat nasty
dog, and eff you puts me off dis yeFe
ke-ah, you'll have to put of de woman
with the dog, 'deed'yo' will, honey"
By this time the passengers were roar
ing with laughter, and several gentlemen
urged the driver TO let the girl and her
goat alone. The merriment OF the pas
sengers only increased his ire, however,
for he seized the girl by the arm saying:
"Come, won't waste words about it;
take that animal out of the Cart
The now Infatuated girl gave the car
driver a push which made him take
seat in a lady's lap. and she screamed as
she rose to her feet and deposited her
goat on the seat: Oar. dar: dat's enough
Of 20 importance. Who's yo' putin 20
hand on: Yo' jes tech me agiu with ono
o yo' fingers. and I'll jes SEED the sert OF
dem dar trousers spur through the crown
o 20 hat, deed / WILL and doan yo' forget
itgn
After this the driver concluded to let
the goat and its ownet alone. but the
damsel looked daggers toward the front
platform and muttered; "Derned f
b'lieve no Cog ez as good as dis yere
goat, deed I don't and eff dat dar dude
wants t5 fuss 'bost it, I'm jess bettiu' /
kin give him all he wants, for shuah."

A Famous Prehistoric Image.

The Uaited States man -of-war Galena
arrived at tine navy yard to-day from the
tropics with cargo OF monkeys and cur
iosities for the Smithsonian Institution
on board. Among other things is the
famous prehistoric image from the Easter
island, which is considered as great a
curiosity as the obelisk of Egypt. 1t is
now two years since Prof Baird first set
on foot efforts to secure one of these
idols, when the United States steamship
Mohican was directed to go TO Easter is
land and secIre one. The island is in the
eastern part of the Pacific ocean, $500
miles from the coast of South America.
1t is about eleven miles long and six
miles wide, with about a thousand inhabi-
tants of the Polynesian race, who are SEX
dom visited by navigt tors. They are
Christians, having been converted by soEse
French missionaries in 1865 The isla1d
contains several hundred of these Cigar 5ic
statues, the antiquity of which is q sealed
book to chronological students. The pres
ent inhabitants of the island have ne tools
with which TO have carved them, nor
mems with which to have moved them.
1t seems certain, therefore, that thoy are
the product of some former age. Ma
tie tradition gives thea & supernatural
origin.
in addition to this statue the &ialena
brings number of huge stone tablets,
on some Of which the carving Is of a su-
,perior kind. These are not the property
of the Smithsonian as get, although they
will probably be donated later by the
owner, Paymaster Thompson. An idol,
similar TO the one for the National mu-
scum, is now at Berlin, having been taken
from Easter island by che Gaselle, Ger
man cruiser, shortly sitter the arrival Of
the United States ship Mohican.
